Team Sorting

A Team of three cowboys are faced with a herd of ten calves, with each calf numbered zero to nine. A judge then calls out a number. for example, the judge calls out "Seven." The riders will then begin sorting the cattle, moving them from one side of the arena to the other, beginning with the number Seven calf and moving on sequentially. Order is essential; which is why one contestant will focus on isolating the appropriate calf while the other makes sure that the remaining calves don't move prematurely to the other side of the arena. If a calf gets through to the other side before its turn, the sorting team is disqualified for that particular round of competition. The riders must herd as many calves as possible to the other pen, in order, within two minutes.
